    Complexity behavior in financial cooperatives
    (Springer Nature Switzerland, 2021) Michael, Omeke; Pascal, T. Ngoboka; Isaac, Nabeta Nkote; Samuel, Mayanja
    In a complex and competitive business ecosystem, market responsiveness, diverse management, and governance approaches are instrumental to achieve sustainable enterprise growth and development. This differs from the traditional command and control approaches of management bounded to inflexible rules and regulations, which inhibit innovation in organizations (McMillan 2008). Anderson (1999) observed that organizations operate in complex, nonlinear, and unpredictable environment. In the developing world, financial cooperatives (FCs) are faced with competitive pressures and witness unpredictable changes in their business operations in the ever-changing business environment.

    Dynamic capabilities and institutional size of financial cooperatives
    (Practical Action Publishing, 2020) Michael, Omeke; Pascal, T. Ngoboka; Isaac, N. Nkote; Isaac, Kayongo
    The study examines the relationship between dynamic capabilities and institutional size of financial cooperatives. A mixed research design was adopted to study 269 savings and credit cooperatives (SACCOs) in Uganda. Structural equation modelling and content analysis were carried out. The results indicate that dynamic capabilities and institutional size of financial cooperatives are significant and positively related. Further, the constructs of dynamic capability of coordination, learning, and competitive response contribute to the increase in membership, capital base, returns to members, and portfolio quality of SACCOs. The study concludes that the size and development of financial cooperatives depends heavily on the institutional and managerial capabilities for coordination, learning, and competitive responses to the environment. The study’s contribution is to highlight the complexity of the environment in which the financial cooperatives operate and the importance of dynamic capabilities to succeed.
